    With many variations of fantasies, "Happily ever after" is reoccurring in every fairy tale. "Cinderella" by Anne Sexton is a different variation of the classic tale. The author sets up her version of Cinderella with four anecdotes sharing how others can go from poverty to riches or gritty reality to fantasy. Sexton changes her happily ever after ending by satirizing the message the story gives. By doing so, Sexton would like the reader to know the difference between a fairy tale and reality. Anne Sexton deconstructs the ending of her retold fairy tale by using sarcasm to change the reader's expectations of the story and myth.…

The Prince took her on his horse and as they passed the hazel tree the birds cried out: “Turn and peep, turn and peep, There’s blood within the shoe, The shoe it is too small for her, The true bride waits for you”. The Prince looked down and saw the blood and took her back to the house. The stepsister told him, that her sister is the true bride.

    Aschenputtel, more widely known as Cinderella, is one of the most classic fairytales that is still commonly passed around today. However, our concept of Cinderella that we have today differs quite a bit from the original version that the Grimm brothers originally released to the public in their time. In the Grimm brothers’ unedited version, Cinderella is treated much worse than portrayed in the Disney movie. Her step sisters make her pick their unwanted food out of the ash and dirt in the hearth and fireplace, the steal all her nice clothes, they make her do all their chores, they blame her for everything, and make her sleep in the fireplace. Cinderella also has no fairy godmother, when she receives her ball gown it is from a white dove in a tree that grew over her mother’s grave. She also receives not just one, but three grand dresses for each night of the ball. When the prince came to Cinderella’s house with the golden, not glass, slipper, the first step sister was advised by her mother to cut off her big toe so that the golden shoe would fit. After that, the shoe fits and the prince rides off with her, the bird…
